Sean 0 Posted November 30, 2012 Hello everyone! I'm pretty new with the whole fishkeeping concept, and was just wondering if I could just use a bubble wall as something to aerate my aquarium. Is this okay, or do I need more things to aerate the tank like air stones? Thanks for the help! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Narny105 1,992 Posted November 30, 2012 Yes it's always best to have aeration in a goldfish tank, so an airstone is needed if your filtration system doesn't aerate it enough. The smaller the bubbles the better, since that dissolves faster in the water 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DieselPlower 2,123 Posted November 30, 2012 The bubble wall is fine. I dont consider aeration a requirement in a properly stocked tank, although its surely good to have. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tithra 4,917 Posted November 30, 2012 A bubble wall is essentially an airstone just describes the shape. Extra aeration in a tank is always a good thing 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeana727 952 Posted December 2, 2012 I love the bubbles!! My big tank has a 4 or 5 foot bubble wall, 2 bubble balls, & there are 2 Dragon bubblers!! Plus 2 Aquaclear 110s dumping a ton 'o water..which creates LOTS o' bubbles too!! I think lots of water movement helps keep healthy water...you just want to have some "resting" spots too! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
